The October 28, 2026 puzzle ran from a farm tractor at 5 m to a container ship at 300 m — about 60× apart, drawing on vehicles. The pair furthest apart was round 5: a Boeing 747 is 1.9× as big as a Space Shuttle orbiter.
Answer: Container Ship — 300 m. A container ship measures 300 m (length / span), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, the RMS Titanic at 269 m.
A large container ship is almost three football fields long.
Common miss: players tend to compress a container ship when it sits beside the RMS Titanic — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Farm Tractor — 5 m. A farm tractor measures 5 m (length / span), which is 1.1× as big as the reference, a family sedan at 4.6 m.
Five metres of tractor is mostly wheelbase; the rear tyres alone can stand taller than an adult.
Common miss: players tend to compress a farm tractor when it sits beside a family sedan — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: RMS Titanic — 269 m. The RMS Titanic measures 269 m (length / span), which is about 1.1× smaller than the reference, a container ship at 300 m.
Titanic was about 269 metres long — shorter than many modern container ships.
Common miss: players tend to inflate the RMS Titanic when it sits beside a container ship — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: American Pickup Truck — 5.9 m. An American pickup truck measures 5.9 m (length / span), which is 1.2× as big as the reference, a farm tractor at 5 m.
A full-size pickup can be nearly six metres long.
Common miss: players tend to compress an American pickup truck when it sits beside a farm tractor — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
Answer: Boeing 747 — 70.7 m. A Boeing 747 measures 70.7 m (length / span), which is 1.9× as big as the reference, a Space Shuttle orbiter at 37.3 m.
A classic Boeing 747 is roughly 70.7 metres long.
Common miss: players tend to compress a Boeing 747 when it sits beside a Space Shuttle orbiter — big things get squeezed, small familiar things get stretched.
